I personally feel this is possibly the most ridiculous thing ever said to a dev. On a roleplay server. Is there some sort of forum award for this @TinyBigJacko? He deserves it if there is one.
Just because it's roleplay doesn't mean it's going to happen. My point is what once was, was good as it allowed to rob houses 'easily' as you'd be able to see which houses were able to be robbed. However, now it's been traded in for this system where it's so mundane in order to rob houses because of the out-look of this roleplay which is highly unlikely to ever occur.
Don't be a prick mate, he's stating his opinion on what should be changed. We're all allowed to disagree as I have been with him so far but belittling him for his opinion is just nasty.
Roleplay never happened when people break into houses. They either do it to get a quick score and run off before someone comes over or the RP goes no further than ''Hands up and stop breaking into my house or you will be shot''.
Realistically when you log off your house should be allowed to be raided. Along with that realistically cops should be able to have their houses raided also. However, that isn't the case. It's a server where people come on to do something of which they enjoy; with this update I personally feel that the server has removed a feature of which many including myself would do once in a while which was go house robbing. Yes , you are still able to do it now however it's such a waste of time because of how long it will take in order to find houses to rob and raid.
Um... I thought cops *can* be robbed, while they are on as cops. Am I missing something? Some of the cops I've spoken to today, recall this being possible, even before the update. Can anyone else confirm?
Under the old system, if you were online then your house could be robbed regardless of Civ, NHS or Police. The only difference was, logging in as Police or NHS didn't spawn in any crates, only logging in as Civ.
Thanks Mattch - so presumably, in the old days, this meant that a cop/medic couldn't lose any ARMA inventory gear, only virtual items like drugs and beans and pickaxes, etc.
As I said, I'm sorry for my views and really hoped this wouldn't be a thread where the Dev team starts hating on me because I inderectly insulted their hard work.
You've not really angered me, and of course I agree that you have every right to an opinion.
Deep.You've not really angered me, and of course I agree that you have every right to an opinion.
However, an opinion based on nothing but hearsay is always going to be very likely derided and pulled apart in seconds, whereas a considered opinion, based upon solid facts, first-hand-gathered evidence, conclusions derived from exploration, exposure and some actual, genuine detective-work, will always count for a hell of a lot more.
I think you'd probably agree that your opinion of the new housing system was more of the second and less of the first, no? You pretty much said so yourself...
We're not hating on you, btw, just your actions in this single instance. If you'd spent a few days going balls-deep on the housing system, of course your opinion would count a hell of a lot more, and we wouldn't be having quite the same tone to the conversation, most likely.
My worry is that unfounded (or at least 'poorly-researched') negativity about 'a thing' tends to spread like wildfire - and before you know it, we have a hundred other Toms, none of whom have actually played the update, all complaining that it's shit. That would concern me greatly. It can sometimes be very difficult then to convince other players to check out 'the thing' and spend time understanding it.
Similarly, it can be very hard sometimes to convince a developer who has worked really hard on something, that he is being taken seriously and not just having his ideas tossed aside by people who can't even be bothered to look at them closely and form sound opinions on them. Given the amount of time that was spent on this by the devs, it can be a mighty big pisser if 'shoutdowns' happen without at least a similar amount of time being spent on forming those opinions. I'm sure you can see that, given what you've said - and your apology is noted, thanks.
So can medics (civ) houses be robbed while they are on as a medicThanks Mattch - so presumably, in the old days, this meant that a cop/medic couldn't lose any ARMA inventory gear, only virtual items like drugs and beans and pickaxes, etc.
In which case:
It needed fixing. Old system didn't allow cops and medics to be FULLY burgled. New system does. Win.
